It took me a while to get a single rudder working on El. Definitely
something to try on the bigger ones. First off the wind, where the
difference in speed and bow attitude was really noticable on El.

Nol,
Agree about 2 rudders for maneuvering, etc being really handy.
Something else to video is crabbing sideways off the jetty when the
wind is blowing you onto it, and see how sharp the boat will turn
under power.

Carlos,
Pretty easy to do, but the loads when the rudders are up get very large.
